A self-professed tomboy who liked to keep up with her brothers as they played hockey, Nancy Kerrigan has always been drawn to the athletic elements of skating, especially the jumps. After learning to skate when she was 6 years old, Kerrigan won her first medal at age 9 and started practicing her “triple-triple” jump combination at 14. She surprised judges as the first woman to perform the combination in competition. She went on to win two Olympic medals and multiple world and U.S. national medals.

In 1991, Kerrigan won a bronze medal at the World Championships and another bronze at the U.S. National Championships. She won her first Olympic medal, a bronze, at the 1992 Winter Games in Albertville, France. 

Kerrigan captured the gold medal at the U.S. National Championships in 1993 and garnered the silver medal at the Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway, in 1994.

In 1994 Kerrigan starred in numerous live shows and television specials, including the “Champions on Ice Present” tour, “Grease on Ice” and “Broadway on Ice.” She is co-creator and co-producer of “Halloween on Ice” and participated in the network special “Dreams on Ice” and the cable specials “An Evening of Country on Ice” and “One Enchanted Evening,” as well as the home video “Alice Through the Looking Glass.” 

In 1998 she made her singing debut with “Shining Through” on the “Reflections Off the Ice” CD.

Kerrigan starred as “Ariel” in “Footloose on Ice” at the Ice Castle Theater in Myrtle Beach, SC, and Boston’s Shubert Theatre in 2001, and also appeared in the network special “Divas on Ice.” The following year, Kerrigan published “Artistry on Ice,” a figure skating instructional book and follow-up to her popular book “In My Own Words.” Her additional television credits include hosting the cable coverage of the “Grand Prix of Figure Skating.” A DVD of her “Halloween on Ice” was released in 2004, the same year she released “Simply the Best” on the “Tina Turner Tribute” CD. On television, Kerrigan most recently appeared in Brian Boitano’s “Skating Spectacular” and Kristi Yamaguchi’s “Friends and Family.”

In 1999, Kerrigan established the Nancy Kerrigan Foundation to help nonprofit organizations raise money to support eye research.  She has been an active fundraiser for Campaign SightFirst and has participated in benefit events including “An Evening of Championship Skating,” “Kraft Dreams on Ice,” “Skate Against Hate” and “Nancy Kerrigan and Friends Show.”  In 2001 Kerrigan was voted Outstanding Mother of the Year by the National Mother’s Day Committee and received the prestigious Henry Iba Award.
